How to install an extension for all users?

arnoqlik — Thu, 26 Aug 2021 15:22:21 GMT

Hello,

I downloaded the NoGreen extension from this website and it works well. Actually it works when I'm connected with my Admin account on the application server and when I use the webview mode.

I tried the application through the access point using my regular user account and colors don't change at all.

The extension is stored here on the server: C:\Users\adm_xxxxxx\AppData\Local\QlikTech\QlikView\Extensions\Document\NoGreen

What should I do to get the extension working for all users?

Thank you in advance for your help.

It appears you have the extension only stored on the specific user profile directory. for server extension it has to be in the %programdata% folder of the server:

I´m assuming you're writing about Qlikview, right? (This forum is about Qlik Sense)

To run QlikView Extensions on a QlikView Server, the contents of the Extensions folder have to be copied from %UserProfile%\AppData\Local\QlikTech\QlikView\Extensions\Objects to the %ProgramData%\QlikTech\QlikViewServer\Extensions\Objects folder on the server

Thank you both for your help. I no longer see the modifications when I switch to the webview mode on the server but it works well when I'm connected as a regular user.

Note: I asked the mods to move the thread.
